Yea, I've done something I've never done before, I preordered (well, barring a couple of games that preordered a few days before relase). I definitely intend to be a diligent beta tester, something else I've never done.

Pre-ordered and paying attention but whether or not the latter will last is highly uncertain. My attention span and available time isn't what it used to be. Still, I'm going to try to stick around, because I think a Stardock game is worth supporting from the ground up.

Preordered as soon as I saw the announcement. Had some TGN tokens lying around waiting for this. Will try to lurk around in the fora, as much as time allows - I did love to follow the Galciv2 development process.

Quoting Razgondk, reply 17really? my invoice said I wouldnt be charged until the game was available...but of course, that could mean when the first open beta is there...

You should not be charged until the beta is made available. If you move you will need to contact sales@stardock.com to change your information so that the sale can be processed. If it isn't once the beta is closed you will have to wait for the next session to begin to get in.
